Analysis
The pattern of paper was different in terms of number of questions in Paper I as
compared to JEE 2009, with a little change in questions from different sections. As usual
chemistry was easiest of all. The beauty of JEE paper is that they only ask logical and
conceptual question from chemistry which makes this section easy. This time physical
chemistry weightage was higher than usual. It was around 40%. Question was NCERT
based and any sincere student will feel it like pie. In organic chemistry questions were on
famous name reactions. Physical chemistry was straight foreword and mostly were
formula based. P –block & coordination chemistry had huge weightage in inorganic
chemistry. Sections like salt analysis were you have to memorize are not asked much and
so was this time. practice Partial marking made scoring bit easy which will uplift cutoff
this time. Regular practice can ensure good marks in chemistry. Our daily test series aims
in this direction. Our daily test series and test series are aimed at arming students with
tricks, aptitude and analytical ability. Learning all the concepts of IITJEE syllabus is a
continuous process and our daily test series is a powerful tool in your hand. We wish all
the best to JEE aspirants for 2011 and hope that our effort will provide some benefit to
them.
